Steam Dryer: Confirmed Function
The official Amethelis chain provides a concrete use: Amethelis is processed by the Dryer into Dry Amethelis. That dried Wisp material can then be burned to release Florin gas for the later Florinol and Energy stages.
Setup and Production Role
Generate Steam from heated Water or Snow, supply it to the dryer stage and route Amethelis through the machine. Keep the dried output moving toward a controlled heat source so Florin gas can be captured for condensation.
Limits and Verification
The sources do not state Steam consumption, input ratio, drying time, capacity, direction or a complete list of dryable materials. Amethelis to Dry Amethelis is verified; support for every wet or Slushy material is not.
